I'm not in grad school quite yet. I'm still studying for my bachelor's until May. My major is English. I already have an associate's degree (I'm not sure if they have these everywhere. It's a degree from a 2-year college.)I've been in college as long as a grad student, though, but that's because college is very expensive and I've had to transfer a number of times. In the US, you also have to take an exam to go to grad school called the GRE. It's very expensive to take prep classes and the exam as well. Until I take that test, I can't apply for grad school.

Dramathoned the last 6 episodes last night!!! Such a great drama with such a fresh cast! I'm hoping for that rumored sequel so much! TvN, just how many great dramas are you going to put out this year??

I just started this drama a few days ago, and now I only have six episodes left!! I love it. I love Seo Ingook especially.

You're very welcome!! Yes, Kame is super lovely...his eyes especially. <3

I don't mind your questions. :) I will be paid a salary and have housing, but I will have to pay rent and furnish my apartment. The salary is roughly 3 million yen for the first year (the allotted time for a contract), and if you are contracted for more, the number goes up. I plan to leave for Japan (provided that I am accepted into the program) on August 3, 2013 and return a year later. For me, Japan is the place to go because 1) Japanese is the language I know best (I know only phrases in Korean and very little Chinese), and 2) the JET Program is linked with the Japanese government, so the ability to purchase health care and have a pension program is a good thing. 3) I'm also terribly fascinated with Japanese history and culture. I want to go to Japan to learn more about the country and its culture as well. I'm also trying to decide what I want to do in grad school. I hope that helps.

Hey Szasha!! I'm well, especially because my application for JET is almost done!! JET is an exchange-teaching program in Japan. I'm going for an ALT position, so I would be helping to teach English in the school systems. I'm so excited, and I hope I get it.

My ajusshi crush!!! I will return to Dokko Jin over and over and over...so hawt!!

I really loved this drama!! It was sweet and never failed in making my heart go 'thump thump'!

otanjoubi omedetou, koki-kun!!

Because the majority of the story takes place in the present, but give it some time. There are consequences in his time as well.

We had some in the air, but the ground here is too warm to accumulaye it right now. I'm not ready for it either.

We still have about six weeks until examinations, but I am trying to get everything set up with my JET application, so things have been pretty hectic. Also, I've been helping another friend with her scholarship application as well.

I'm doing well. I've been really busy lately, so I kind of disappeared. My homework load has been pretty intense, lol. How are you doing? :)

I'm doing well, but I've been really busy, so I haven't been on MDL much recently. How are you?

You had some of mine right, especially Nakatsu. I also think that Rui is great. I haven't watched Zenkai Girl or Liar Game, so I don't know there. Akira is my hero. My other two would be Sawada Shin (the way he takes care of Yankumi is great), and Takano Kyohei (I love him and Sunako, plus Kame is my bias).

Thank you for the add! Your profile pic is so cute!

Me too. :'( I'm hoping for an even better 2013 as well.

I was disappointed as well. I hope they win today. I have an exam so I won't be able to listen to all of it.

Neko-chan! I saw on picture thread that you guys did a group Skype together. Right now because of school, I can't participate, but I was wondering if I could skype with you guys sometime. My Skype address is dramafan13. :D

I actually was traveling home from Elyria (near Cleveland) all last night, so I listened to the game on the car radio. We got home about 10 minutes after the game ended.
